PVC terrmite controle works quite well, also termite barriers, it's a cloth that is placed in the concrete wherever anything perferates it, works even better. Termites live in the soil, not in the wood and migrate to there food sorce on a daily basis, so if you can get in your crawl space make it a quartly scedual to go under the house and inspect for any termite tunnels. They are usually easilly visable as dirt tunnels on your concrete. If you find even one call the exterminators. If you do this regularly you won't have any problems. If you have the exterminators do the inspection you will "of course" always have a termite infestation, so you have to do it yourself.

one other thing I would like to mention on termite control, be vigilent about clean up, don't let your contractors bury any wood on the property especially around your foundation. Burried wood is ambrosia to termites and will give them a great reason to become your niebors and eventually your house guests.

^^ I agree with most of this, with the exception of the personal inspection part. It's not worth it, either in your labor, or in your potential to meet up with a Cobra, I was deadly serious before when I posted that in spite of my injected humor (if you'll pardon the pun).

Your crawl space is like the worlds most attractive bachelor pad to them and when your under there you wouldn't even be able to think before you got whacked with little to no space to move around in compared to how they move and how well they would blend in, also they would be aggressive and not fearful as you would be treading on their turf as they see it..

Far less likely they will run since it is not a casual meet out somewhere in a field on neutral ground..Call someone and let them do their job..
